Working out which horses qualify for the Melbourne Cup field is a long and complicated process, but we finally have our final field for the 2020 edition.

» UPSET: Twilight Payment wins Melbourne Cup in a boilover

Last year’s winner, Vow And Declare, is back again and will start the race from barrier number four. It won last year from barrier 21. Last year’s runner-up, Prince Of Arran, is also present and will try to go one better from barrier one.

Other recent Group 1 winners in the field include Cox Plate winner Sir Dragonet coming out of barrier 14 and Caulfield Cup winner Verry Elleegant out of barrier 15.

The favourite, however, is Tiger Moth out of barrier 23.

Here, you can view the full and final field for the 2020 Melbourne Cup, including every horse’s jockey and trainer, and the barriers they will start from.
